It’s weird how after living for dozens of years you can still keep discovering things about yourself.
Like, recently I realized I kinda have aphantasia. Basically it means I’m having a hard time imagining pictures in my head. Mine is not the most severe, if I try really hard I can imagine like the grayscale horse on the image below, without any colors, just the outlines:

I never realized before that most people are actually able to see images in their head with colors and detail.
It got me thinking – if I did some real hallucinogens – would my aphantasia stop me from seeing really vivid images, and I would be high on acid just seeing formless colorless moving blobs?
